I have a lifelong love for dogs. Over the years, I have intermittently provided care for the dogs of family members, which has included overnight sitting at the owner's house, taking the dog into my residence, or stopping by as needed to feed or water their dog. I am a certified dog trainer from Animal Behavior College in Valencia, CA. I will plan to be available to drop in and visit and/or walk your dog from late morning into the early evening. I believe that all people who interact with dogs should try to do so in a calm and assertive fashion, establishing a place leadership with the dog. With every dog I encounter, I attempt to establish a position of leadership that is both firm and fair, in order to foster stable relationships between dog and human.
